A model needs to look her (or his) best at all times. And one of the first places an agency notices will be your face, so it’s important that your first impression be a good one.

Proper facial and skin care is essential to this industry – even if you are a hand or foot model. So, if you haven’t already taken the time to give yourself a facial, now is as good a time as any. Try to make it a weekly habit.

Below you’ll find a 30 minute quick and dirty facial regimen.

What you’ll need:

2 small facial towels

Herbal tea

Facial cleanser suited to your skin type

Facial scrub suited to your skin type

Quick drying facial mask

Facial toner suited to your skin type

Facial moisturizer suited to your skin type

Let’s get started:

Set your herbal tea to boiling in an open pot and let that set while you prepare.

Get started by washing your face with lukewarm water and pat dry with one of the towels.

Using gloves or something heat resistance, dip one of the small towels in the pot and soak up the herbal tea.

Wring the towel out and let it cool, but don’t let it get too cold.

When the towel is comfortable to the touch with bare hands, place gently over the face while you lay down.

Once the towel cools down to luke warm, place it in the fridge.

While your pores are still open, use the scrub and make sure to slosh off any dead skin.

When you’ve completed the scrub, next spread the quick drying mask liberally over the skin, being careful to avoid the eye and mouth area

Once the mask is dry, clean off (following the instructions) and pat dry with towel, then apply the skin toner.

Remove the other towel from the fridge and rest on the face for a few minutes to close up the pores.
